How to Balance HClO4 + NaOH = NaClO4 + H2O (Perchloric acid + Sodium hydroxide)

In this video we'll balance the equation HClO4 NaOH = NaClO4 H2O and provide the correct coefficients for each compound. To balance HClO4 NaOH = NaClO4 H2O you'll need to be sure to count all of atoms on each side of the chemical equation. Once you know how many of each type of atom you can only change the coefficients (the numbers in front of atoms or compounds) to balance the equation for Perchloric acid Sodium hydroxide. Important tips for balancing chemical equations: Only change the numbers in front of compounds (the coefficients). Never change the numbers after atoms (the subscripts). The number of each atom on both sides of the equation must be the same for the equation to be balanced.
